Confirmation of every character having a skill tree ?

[sudoku]

As long as it doesnt take 4 years of development time like the refreshes did than i dont see a problem with skill trees

I picture it like, for example, wolfgang can craft either the dreadstone dumpbell or the pure brilliance dumpbell wich do cool new stuff, but also his dmg multiplier affects the planar dmg of the weapons of the side he chooses to be aligned with.

I really hope that it is similar to this, as i do not think a full skill tree would helo the game.

This! You lot should've tuned into the Rhymes with Play live stream, they pretty much confirmed all of this and more back during it. It was super fun too.

Other characters being able to pick sides was confirmed wayyy back then, though they noted it wouldn't be 1:1 with Wilson. I don't imagine everyone is going to get their own entirely dedicated skill trees, at that.

I would like it to be where you pick a side in the skill tree UI after defeating the respective boss, and then you gain the allignment, and a few extra character exclusive character perks related to that, it would be perfect for me.

I for one welcome skills trees.

Another layer set forth on our survivors, while also being completely optional. Skill trees allow another level of customization that may differentiate one Wigfrid from another (besides the surface level skins). 

I would greatly hope I can shun away from wormwoods disgusting, deplorable, and otherwise dreary farming skills for more green craft oriented ones. 

As long as DST doesn't change into paid subscription MMO (or worse yet a Free to Play one) i don't mind skill trees either ^^

The shadow magic tab and celestial tab are now $10.99 each while the psuedo science tab is now $5.99 a month.

Throwing more money at them probably won't make things faster or more polished. And the devs have already said they don't want to divide the playerbase with DLC or paid expansion. I'd love to see more funds pooled so we can get events like the Forge again, but I don't think paid updates are really the way to go.

 think not as a skill tree mechanic but  as a down side  Webber should lose sanity when spiders die in a certain  vicinity  of him at the very least befriended and plus if that makes the game to unplayable then they can make him gain sanity around decorated dens like how regular characters lose sanity around normal dens , grain sanity around alive befriended spiders like how regular characters lose around normal spiders, or both 

Possible way to get new exp is befriending all a 8 different type of spiders and maybe decorating a den for the first time and sense that’s only  9 maybe something  farming related for the other 6 after unlocking all the different types of switcher doodles you unlock the ability to befriend queens but  sense having them as a faction is unrealistically overpowered I’m thinking a merm/pig king or beefalo sort of thing and maybe the the beard thing but instead of food it’s spiders but I feel  they can do better then parodying Wilson and the purple stuff  surrounding the spider in the Webber  animation I think might be pure horror ether for the machine or the spider himself  so they could do something with that other then that they could embrace his farm past a have something to do with farming

I just thought of another idea for webbers potential skill tree what if they re use the baby spiders from the forge and it is the silk beard equivalent of Wilson’s beard  inventory where they full up the beard inventory and they would have the same mechanics as in the forge but instead of going to sleep when Webber dies they each could only be outside the beard for so long after that they return to the beard and nap and they’ll need to charge back up before using them again so you decide if,when,and how many you takeout at a time  and if you die or shave they just go back in to the beard pocket dimension

Also depending on what beard skin you have on will determine what they look like  they would look like tiny versions of what spiders from a den that has a queen that looks like that beards respective Webber skin and if they don’t just appear once you to grow your beard you would just apply a spider eggs item to your beard and maybe by applying a den decorating set to your beard there will be a portable range that all spiders with in it will be come bedazzled spiders  this would be useful for when you and your none webber friends are traveling though an area that is densely packed with spiders dens and if that to op maybe a smaller range the normal decorated dens and maybe give Webber the ability to wrap his beard around himself to make a Pseudo spider den Obviously lease restoration then normal/decorated dens it’s not really meant to be frequent thing just something to give that edge every once and a while

I was just thinking what if for the alinement each side has there own bars and if to bars is powerful then make each half as strong 

What if shadow and mutated switcher doodles were made like shatter switcher doodles but replace the two moon glass with two pure horror or two pure brilliance  and they would have two attacks each mirroring each other reflective of the equal and opposite thing going on the first attack is basically a reskinned shattered spider moon glass spike attack but more powerful not sure how much more powerful this is more a  proof of concept where they they produce pure horror spikes and pure brilliance spikes and the second attack is when they bite it’s a poison bite like shipwreck spider warriors but the  greenish yellow particle effect and border are ether black or white maybe black with red highlights or blue with white highlights  depending on whether there shadow or lunar alined and each spider is more powerful against   Mods of opposite alignment and suffer less damage from those of the same alignment What if for Webber it just mutation instead of trans mutation or maybe spider mutations 

I’m still working on this:

shadow aligned: shadow widower

lunar aligned: lunar araneae

There is still a way for Wilson to be special if everyone gets skill trees. Like the other character can maybe only pick one tree at a time, one per session. While Wilson can have all 3 at a time, and it carries out throughout sessions.

Or have the characters get a small skill tree based on what side they chose, and gain and lose powers depending on which you chose. I'm using Willow as an example, because obviously.

Choose shadows, get stronger fire but weaker Bernie. Can craft Nighter, a shadow fire lighter.

Choose moon, get stronger Bernie but weaker fire. Can craft Brighter, an endothermic lighter.

Chose to live for yourself or be useful to your team? There's possibilities here.

[yuncito]

here some ideas:

Wortox choosing between having more souls, or crafting a soul weapon (the more souls the more dmg) so u can be a healer or a dmg dealer

Willow choosing between having more ways to manipulate fire, and improving bernie to have more hp and more dmg

WX choosing from having either 2 extra slots circuits or being able to craft electric weapon

Woodie having a moleworm form that can create sinkholes or a (insert canadian animal) that can heal like wortox somehow

 

so they would be like wilson choosing between 2 perks, the beard and the torch and lots of stats improving

If I'm not mistaken, when they originally spoke about other characters being able to pick a side like Wilson, they clarified it not necessarily being in the same manner.

I recall the phrasing being a bit vague though, so perhaps I misinterpreted it.

After revisiting the stream, yeah they dont say it will be 1:1 with wilson, for anyone wanting to check it its the 53 minute, i still think is heavily implied the adittion of the skilltrees for many other factors but is true that they are very vage in which way other characters will be able to do so, thanks for correcting me.

I don't disagree that a skilltree would be a way to diversify playstyles across different survivors, But I feel like there are more interesting ways to go about that. Like shadow or moon shrines around the world that infer different abilities and drawbacks. Not every character needs a skilltree and considering how underwhelming Wilson's was I'm not particularly excited for that prospect on other characters. I would rather they just buff and tweak survivors that currently need it along side the major updates like they did with Wurt not too long ago.

I’m still thinking if they could motivate be to be enlightened, insanity gives battles which reward some of the best things in the game. Enlightened feeds some characters like Wes and Wickerbottom, but is otherwise dull and unrewarding. I guess new bright shade gear is already equal enough, but also seems detached from what I’d expect in a skill tree outside of DPS.
